The grue is a sinister, lurking presence in the dark places of the earth. Its favorite diet is
adventurers, but its insatiable appetite is tempered by its fear of light. No grue has ever been seen
by the light of day, and few have survived its fearsome jaws to tell the tale.

The Mad Pope

The Mad Pope is a wandering mercenary. He is very well deranged as he considers himself to be the pontiff of the dominant faith. His robes are tattered, his mitre has seen better days and there are surely lice in his long ratty beard. What sets him apart from most addle-pated would be holy men is that he has armor under his robes and carries a large crossbow and several one-handed swords. While many would discout him as just another lunatic, for some reason, he inspires others around him and has demonstrated the ability to lay on hands and heal the wounded.
